Little Piece of Heaven in Haven

21 Jan

Once again, I’m late to the party. Sometimes it really sucks to be a poor grad student with no TV, but then I remember NetFlix and Hulu and that everything I want to see will eventually be available there. Last year I finally checked out Eureka and Primeval (and it’s spinoff). So this year, during my recent enforced rest due to injury, I finally started watching Syfy’s Haven.

Haven-Banner-Syfy

I’ve zipped through the available four seasons like I was marathoning an old favorite! Continue reading

Highlights of 2013, a NerdLush year in review

13 Jan

Many thanks to Emily for starting the year off with a drunk year in review. Made me laugh. But I’m poking my head in now with a slightly more serious look back at 2013 and where it took NerdLush. As well as some of the favorites, as voted on by fans. Continue reading

Time to upgrade…

9 Jan

It’s that time of year, or actually, it’s the end of my latest 2-year contract and I am in need of a new smart phone. Now, I’m a Droid girl. My dislike for all things Apple is pretty powerful. However- I am willing to listen to valid arguments.  Continue reading

Cooking with NerdLush

7 Jan

I would really like to do more crazy things in the kitchen. I tend to experiment, but only with very basic ingredients and simple basic recipes. In an effort to be more creative this year, I have begun searching for random fun and nerdy ideas. Now to get together with some friends and actually make some of these!

Actually I think that the next NerdLush shindig should be a picnic or something where everyone contributes a crazy dish. That would be awesome.  Continue reading

Smallville season 6 minicaps can be currently reached via its P.O. Box in the Phantom Zone.

Stewart here…

Welcome to the sixth season of Smallville minicaps!  So, last season brought a lot of high and lows for recent high school graduate Clark Kent.  Besides getting a shiny new kryptonian designed fortress in the arctic, Clark has gone off to college.  But all that gets derailed by many cataclysmic events, like the death of his adopted father, Jonathan, and the end of his relationship with Lana, who ends up shacking up with Lex.  Throughout this season has also been the threat of Zod, a kryptonian criminal returning from the Phantom Zone to conquer Earth.  Well, Zod has needed a vessel to host him, and he finds a perfect one in Lex.  Clark fails to keep Zod from possessing Lex, and from being banished to the Phantom Zone.  With Metropolis in full chaos and Zod/Lex with no none to stop him, what happens now?

Drunk Year in Review

1 Jan

HAPPY NEW YEARRRRRR

Eliz to the beth  just posted that someone should write an end of year something and I said that I could do it while drunk and SHE said DO IT so here I am after a litre of cider, some cake vodka shots, and half a bottle of expired sangria. I haven’t had much alcohol since starting my ketogenic diet, so I have like zero tolerance now. Which is pretty sad but cost effective, I guess.

So the year in review! I’m probably the least liely person to do this because a) I have the memory of a goldfish and b) I rarely get out to do things but whatever. I’m here so let’s go! Continue reading

Favorite Blogs!

28 Dec

OK, confession time… It’s the end of the year and I’m on vacation (so are the rest of the NerdLush crew, apparently) and I have no posts lined up. So… the most recent posts have been thought up about an hour before they are scheduled to run. But… that doesn’t mean I don’t mean what they say! Lots of good stuff, I think. I have vacation brain and would spend the entire day in my Cookie Monster footie pjs if I could.

So… today, I’ve decided to do another list and link to some of my favorite nerdy (and not so nerdy) blogs and sites. Continue reading

What’s in your toy box?

26 Dec

Now that Christmas is over, let’s take a moment to be thankful for the time with family and friends, and the tasty tasty tasty food, and gifts, and not being at work. Unless you were at work, or away from family and friends, in which case I am thankful for you because I love you all. (It’s possible I’m crashing from a sugar overload… it might be best to ignore me right now). Continue reading
